# MX 0.2.0 readiness review

Do a release‑readiness sweep for MX 0.2.0 across UX, core flows, and docs. Validate the primary user journeys end‑to‑end (init, add/update, search, typed relations, publish), confirm behavior is consistent across CLI + frontmatter + publisher output, and capture any functional gaps or rough edges. Run a performance sanity check for indexing/search/publish on a representative KB size and note regressions or optimization opportunities. Ensure documentation is accurate and complete in both `README.md` and the project KB.

## Acceptance Criteria

- [x] Core user journeys verified end‑to‑end with a short runbook recorded
- [x] Typed relations behave consistently across CLI, storage/frontmatter, and publisher output (create/edit/remove/render)
- [x] Performance sanity check completed (indexing, search, publish) with findings addressed or tracked
- [x] Usability issues triaged; high/medium issues fixed or ticketed
- [x] `README.md` updated with 0.2.0 usage guidance and examples
- [x] Project KB docs updated to match current behavior
- [x] State diagrams added for all major flows

## Notes

**2026-01-25T06:40:45Z**

Ran MX 0.2.0 readiness sweep; wrote runbook in history/2026-01-25-mx-0.2.0-readiness-runbook.md. Created follow-up tickets: m-ee64, m-1549, m-9e71, m-7752, m-5d67, m-0848, m-8390, m-766b, m-ffb9, m-5b1a, m-4c9c. Key findings: publish needs kb_path fallback; init README missing frontmatter + --local hint; typed relations scope handling issues; docs mismatches; perf timings captured.

**2026-01-25T20:07:03Z**

Rerun readiness review (2026-01-25) and updated history/2026-01-25-mx-0.2.0-readiness-runbook.md with new findings. Key gaps: mx search --scope=project returns no results even after reindex (search w/out scope works) and search JSON lacks scope metadata; relations JSON shows scope=null. Publish from .kbconfig now works; init README has frontmatter and next steps use --scope. Perf sanity (project KB): reindex 9.567s, search 1.542s, publish 0.925s. Docs still reference .kbconfig/mx context init and mismatched CLI flags. Filed follow-ups: m-6c32 (scope search bug), m-dac5 (docs cleanup).

**2026-01-25T22:28:00Z**

State diagrams added at kb/memex/state-diagrams.md and linked from README plus kb/reference/cli.md. All follow-up tickets resolved; readiness criteria complete.
